If the output impedance is 10 Ohms then it still does not explain the low power output into low impedance headphones.
The Matrix has an output impedance of either 5 or 10 ohms depending on what spec sheet you use. Perhaps they revised it somewhere along the way.
Based on the photos I have seen the amp design is the same as it was 6 months ago (pre USB input).
They did add some much needed cooling vents to the side.
Going off matrix-digi.com, which should be the official page, output impedance is 5 ohms:
Technical Specifications Technical Details
Input impedance: 47 KOhms
Frequency response: 10Hz (-0.3dB) to 35 kHz (-1dB)
SNR:> 95dB at 0dB gain
Distortion: <0.001% at 6mW/300 Ohms
Output power: 200mW/300 Ohms, 400mW/60 Ohms
Output impedance: line out 60 Ohms, phones out 5 Ohms
